Therefore, just so that you hate it more (:-) I have also introduced
yet another variable
`org-treat-S-cursor-todo-seletion-as-state-change', and I will set it
(personally) to nil. Then I can use S-right to flip through states
without taking notes, and C-c C-t to switch to a state with taking a
note.
I call this not inconsistency or a bug, I'd call it choice :-)

\o/
I'll use this right away! Thanks Carsten! Sometimes when creating a

subtask under another subtask that is in a PROJECT/WAITING/SOMEDAY
state

the new task gets the same todo state keyword as the task above.
Changing the keyword to TODO prompts for a note which I want to avoid.
This will work great!
I've attached a patch that fixes a typo in the new variable name.
